Kill off the concept of maintaining a bundle of connections to a particular
target service to increase the number of call slots available for any
beyond four for that service (there are four call slots per connection).
This will make cleaning up the connection handling code easier and
facilitate removal of the rxrpc_transport struct. Bundling can be
reintroduced later if necessary.

Provide refcount helper functions for connections so that the code doesn't
touch local or connection usage counts directly.
Also make it such that local and peer put functions can take a NULL
pointer.

Use the IDR facility to allocate client connection IDs on a machine-wide
basis so that each client connection has a unique identifier. When the
connection ID space wraps, we advance the epoch by 1, thereby effectively
having a 62-bit ID space. The IDR facility is then used to look up client
connections during incoming packet routing instead of using an rbtree
rooted on the transport.
This change allows for the removal of the transport in the future and also
means that client connections can be looked up directly in the data-ready
handler by connection ID.
The ID management code is placed in a new file, conn-client.c, to which all
the client connection-specific code will eventually move.
Note that the IDR tree gets very expensive on memory if the connection IDs
are widely scattered throughout the number space, so we shall need to
retire connections that have, say, an ID more than four times the maximum
number of client conns away from the current allocation point to try and
keep the IDs concentrated. We will also need to retire connections from an
old epoch.
Also note that, for the moment, a pointer to the transport has to be passed
through into the ID allocation function so that we can take a BH lock to
prevent a locking issue against in-BH lookup of client connections. This
will go away later when RCU is used for server connections also.

rxrpc_connection_lock shouldn't be accessed as a BH-excluding lock. It's
only accessed in a few places and none of those are in BH-context.
rxrpc_transport::conn_lock, however, *is* a BH-excluding lock and should be
accessed so consistently.

Pass a pointer to struct sk_buff rather than struct rxrpc_host_header to
functions so that they can in the future get at transport protocol parameters
rather than just RxRPC parameters.

"Exclusive connections" are meant to be used for a single client call and
then scrapped. The idea is to limit the use of the negotiated security
context. The current code, however, isn't doing this: it is instead
restricting the socket to a single virtual connection and doing all the
calls over that.
This is changed such that the socket no longer maintains a special virtual
connection over which it will do all the calls, but rather gets a new one
each time a new exclusive call is made.
Further, using a socket option for this is a poor choice. It should be
done on sendmsg with a control message marker instead so that calls can be
marked exclusive individually. To that end, add RXRPC_EXCLUSIVE_CALL
which, if passed to sendmsg() as a control message element, will cause the
call to be done on an single-use connection.
The socket option (RXRPC_EXCLUSIVE_CONNECTION) still exists and, if set,
will override any lack of RXRPC_EXCLUSIVE_CALL being specified so that
programs using the setsockopt() will appear to work the same.

Define and use a structure to hold connection parameters. This makes it
easier to pass multiple connection parameters around.
Define and use a structure to hold protocol information used to hash a
connection for lookup on incoming packet. Most of these fields will be
disposed of eventually, including the duplicate local pointer.
Whilst we're at it rename "proto" to "family" when referring to a protocol
family.

Rename files matching net/rxrpc/ar-*.c to get rid of the "ar-" prefix.
This will aid splitting those files by making easier to come up with new
names.
Note that the not all files are simply renamed from ar-X.c to X.c. The
following exceptions are made:
(*) ar-call.c -> call_object.c
ar-ack.c -> call_event.c
call_object.c is going to contain the core of the call object
handling. Call event handling is all going to be in call_event.c.
(*) ar-accept.c -> call_accept.c
Incoming call handling is going to be here.
(*) ar-connection.c -> conn_object.c
ar-connevent.c -> conn_event.c
The former file is going to have the basic connection object handling,
but there will likely be some differentiation between client
connections and service connections in additional files later. The
latter file will have all the connection-level event handling.
(*) ar-local.c -> local_object.c
This will have the local endpoint object handling code. The local
endpoint event handling code will later be split out into
local_event.c.
(*) ar-peer.c -> peer_object.c
This will have the peer endpoint object handling code. Peer event
handling code will be placed in peer_event.c (for the moment, there is
none).
(*) ar-error.c -> peer_event.c
This will become the peer event handling code, though for the moment
it's actually driven from the local endpoint's perspective.
Note that I haven't renamed ar-transport.c to transport_object.c as the
intention is to delete it when the rxrpc_transport struct is excised.
The only file that actually has its contents changed is net/rxrpc/Makefile.
net/rxrpc/ar-internal.h will need its section marker comments updating, but
I'll do that in a separate patch to make it easier for git to follow the
history across the rename. I may also want to rename ar-internal.h at some
point - but that would mean updating all the #includes and I'd rather do
that in a separate step.
